Whenever I attempt to go to certain websites (google, tumblr, etc) on both my computer and mobile devices I keep getting redirected to a fake flash player update page. I've tried scanning my computer for anything and none of the programs I've tried using detected anything suspicious (I did have something called sp.exe(?) running in task manager)..The only programs I can recall installing before any of this happened were VLC and gifcam (also used clipconverter for youtube videos at the time). I've tried resetting my router settings to default and the websites I had problems accessing were working for about 15-20 minutes only to be redirected again or just not work at all (the router I have now is pretty new, so I'm not really used to working around it/not sure of what to look for if it is the problem)....Sorry if this is pretty long but any help would be appreciated

Hello, sorry if I'm replying late. I did a scan this morning with the avast network threats scanner (did not have avast or any other av installed strangely) and said that I needed to disable 'remote management access' but couldn't find any settings for that when I tried configuring my router settings (also something about anonymous filtering but doesn't have that option either) I've found out that my type of router can get something called a 'moon' worm (not sure if it's actually that or something else since I couldn't find my model listed) and the only way I've heard to get rid of it is to disable the remote management access but I'm not sure if that'll actually get rid of it (also someone said something about resetting the router to default). I did change the local management access to HTTPS and disabled the automatic firmware update option if that'd help the least bit. I did get google to start working again surprisingly but it would load slow and would either say 'untitled' or about:blank and would act funky sometimes while loading. I did do multiple scans using avast, malwarebytes, adwcleaner and hitman pro and avast found Win32.Dropper-gen [Drp] from something I downloaded months ago but I tried removing as many traces of it as possible that I could find (also shredding any files I found later, also one of the other programs did find something but I forgot what it was but it was quarantined/moved to chest the first night of this happening). I also did a scan with tdsskiller and it didn't find anything. I did do a dns flush which worked for about 5 minutes and shredded free space on my c drive.

I found 2 startup tasks that I disabled from the infected file(s): ({74EE8721-3E7E-4462-AC11-88B59562F2DE}Microsoft CorporationC:\Windows\system32\pcalua.exe -a "C:\Program Files\Adobe Photoshop CS4 ME\Start.exe" -d "C:\Program Files\Adobe Photoshop CS4 ME" and {DCA3F45C-D7CA-418C-A8C0-53E998B47679}Microsoft CorporationC:\Windows\system32\pcalua.exe -a "C:\Users\Ling\Desktop\Adobe Photoshop CS 8 Full Version\setup.exe" -d "C:\Users\Ling\Desktop\Adobe Photoshop CS 8 Full Version") I'm not sure if I should delete them or just keep them disabled if they'd cause any more issues, I just disabled them because I wasn't sure if they're bad or not.

I decided to switch back to my old router temporarily if this issue doesn't get resolved but I can set my newer ones back up to do the scans you asked me to tomorrow since it's late. Thanks in advance
